March 2020

Whatever the market conditions, it’s important to have the right tools to manage risk. Our long (TECC) and short (TECS) iTraxx Crossover ETFs allow investors to increase or decrease their European high yield credit exposure, without trading underlying bonds and without adding or removing interest rate risk.

The volatility in March highlighted the effectiveness of TECS as a hedging tool. The ETF showed strong inverse correlation with both long CDS exposure and with European high yield bond benchmarks, on both a weekly and a monthly basis.
